Gardaí in the Cavan and Monaghan divisions are urging people to remember the importance of visibility.
In a statement on social media, they said the importance of visibility on our roads cannot be understated, particularly for vulnerable road users including pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooter drivers and motorcyclists.
They are urging all road users to, wear or use high-visibility clothing and accessories, use appropriate lighting on bicycles, motorcycles, e-scooters and vehicles, drive using dipped headlights at all times of day during the winter period, slow down and anticipate vulnerable road users, allow extra space for overtaking on rural roads in particular, and to be extra vigilant during hours of low light.
As Ireland enters the darkest months of the year, the message is simple: If you can be seen, you can be safer.
